Gavin’s coming home: Update 07/16/2012 (9am)

I just spoke with Lizze this morning again. Gavin is scheduled for his MRI at 10:10am this morning. However, because of his history of PICA, they want to do an abdominal X ray first to ensure there are no medal objects in his system that rip through his insides during the MRI.

Lizze also explained that Gavin has had a couple episodes of possible apnea. We don’t know the exact cause but his O2 sats dropped to about 80%.

Lizze had to physically shake him and make him take a deep breath before his sats returned to normal. We have no idea what happened but it’s possible that this could cause a delay in his return home. In this case. I would be all for a delay because, we don’t have an apnea monitor, so if this happened again……….

I will pass more along as I get the information.
